Sourcing this category from India
HS 0903.00 covers Mate. It is a leaf classification, so it sets the duty line directly for goods that fall under it. India is one of the world's great origins for tea, coffee and spices — from Darjeeling and Assam tea to pepper, cardamom and turmeric. India exported $7K under this code worldwide in 2024, ranking #1 of 1 lines in its heading (UN Comtrade).
How to read this code
0903.00 is the six-digit HS subheading for mate. To clear customs your destination country extends it to a full 8–10 digit code and assigns the duty rate. India's preferential trade agreements (UAE CEPA, Australia ECTA, and others) can reduce or zero out that duty on many vegetable products lines — check our import guides for your market.
